Bolts of lightning - out of the blue 
Without forewarning - the heat is on you 
Watch what you say - the phone maybe tapped 
Under heavy surveillance - looks like you're trapped 
Under investigation - whether guilty or not 
Without your own doing - you're part of the plot 
Trying to hide - going underground 
Just a matter of time until you will be found 
The noose is tightening - there's no return 
Moral cleansing - free thinking must burn 
This is serious - your face in the mud 
The end of the story is written in blood 
Freeze! Down on your knees! Beaten and bound 
Tarred and feathered they parade you around 
The media is feasting - your face on the news 
It's a feeding frenzy - a mob on the loose 
It doesn't matter what you say or do 
There is no justice - no future for you 
Because you're the scapegoat you are to blame 
This is your life - 15 minutes of shame 
Witch hunt - guilty by association 
Witch hunt - systematic defamation 
Witch hunt - process of elimination 
Witch hunt - demonized and sacrificed 
Witch hunt - guilty by association 
Witch hunt - merciless interrogation 
Witch hunt - ill-reputed executed 
Witch hunt - which hunt? 
Burn that witch 
Witch hunt - guilty by association 
Witch hunt - methodical eradication 
Witch hunt - crucified by morning light 
Witch hunt - which hunt? 
Burn that witch 
You've always been different - you've spoken your mind 
Set yourself apart - now they hate your kind 
A foreign element - the unknown factor 
An alien component - the Hannibal Lecter
